There is no lock preventing both l2cap_sock_release() and chan->ops->close() from running at the same time. If we consider Thread A running l2cap_chan_timeout() and Thread B running l2cap_sock_release(), expected behavior is: A::l2cap_chan_timeout()->l2cap_chan_close()->l2cap_sock_teardown_cb() A::l2cap_chan_timeout()->l2cap_sock_close_cb()->l2cap_sock_kill() B::l2cap_sock_release()->sock_orphan() B::l2cap_sock_release()->l2cap_sock_kill() where, sock_orphan() clears "sk->sk_socket" and l2cap_sock_teardown_cb() marks socket as SOCK_ZAPPED. In l2cap_sock_kill(), there is an "if-statement" that checks if both sock_orphan() and sock_teardown() has been run i.e. sk->sk_socket is NULL and socket is marked as SOCK_ZAPPED. Socket is killed if the condition is satisfied. In the race condition, following occurs: A::l2cap_chan_timeout()->l2cap_chan_close()->l2cap_sock_teardown_cb() B::l2cap_sock_release()->sock_orphan() B::l2cap_sock_release()->l2cap_sock_kill() A::l2cap_chan_timeout()->l2cap_sock_close_cb()->l2cap_sock_kill() In this scenario, "if-statement" is true in both B::l2cap_sock_kill() and A::l2cap_sock_kill() and we hit "refcount: underflow; use-after-free" bug. Similar condition occurs at other places where teardown/sock_kill is happening: l2cap_disconnect_rsp()->l2cap_chan_del()->l2cap_sock_teardown_cb() l2cap_disconnect_rsp()->l2cap_sock_close_cb()->l2cap_sock_kill() l2cap_conn_del()->l2cap_chan_del()->l2cap_sock_teardown_cb() l2cap_conn_del()->l2cap_sock_close_cb()->l2cap_sock_kill() l2cap_disconnect_req()->l2cap_chan_del()->l2cap_sock_teardown_cb() l2cap_disconnect_req()->l2cap_sock_close_cb()->l2cap_sock_kill() l2cap_sock_cleanup_listen()->l2cap_chan_close()->l2cap_sock_teardown_cb() l2cap_sock_cleanup_listen()->l2cap_sock_kill() Protect teardown/sock_kill and orphan/sock_kill by adding hold_lock on l2cap channel to ensure that the socket is killed only after marked as zapped and orphan.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
